PARLIAMENTARY TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS.
*«* In the following remark$ the word Houte is to be under-
tfood to mean the Mouse of Commone, unlets it is obvious that it
refers to the House of Lords or to either House,
ADJOURNMENT.p-An adjoarnment compeU the immediate rising o
the House, who meet again at the time appointed for the next sitting, or
Hdjnams the business on which the House is then engaged antil a future
day. The adjoarnment of the House is effected either by virtue of a
Standing Order, or by tlie order of the Hoose. See Counts Out, Sittings of
Parliaoient, and Sittings of the House.
\DJOUBNMENT OP THE HOUSP: MOVED BEFORE PUBLIC
BUSINESS. — A Mvnibcr may rihe to muve the udjourninent of the House
lor the purpose of discussing a matter of urgent public impurtaace. Tbi.s
motion may only be made after the question* to Mioisters ut the afternoon
MttiD? have been disposed of, und before the lummenrenient of Puhlic
Business has been entered upon. The terms of the motion nm!.t be
ciiven to the Speaker in writing. If forty Members do not rl)»e in support
of it, the motion fails, unless, not lesd than ten having so riMen, und a
duision being claimed, the majority are in favour of tlie motion. Iftlie
motion is made, it must stand over until tlie evening sitting of tlie
vtrae day.
ADJOURNMENT, MOTIONS FOR, IN ABUSE OF THE RULES.—
I r the Speaker, or the Chairman of a Committee of the whole House,
>ha)l be of opinion that a Motion for the Adjournment of a Debate, or
»f the House, during any Debate, or a Motion that the Chairman do
report Progress, or do leave the Chair, is an abuse of the Rules of the
House, he may forthwith put the Question thereupon from the Chair
or he may decline to propose the Question to the House.
AMENDMENT.— See Business, Debate, &c.
APPROPRIATION BILL.— When all the grants necessary fur the
service of the year have been voted, the expenditure of each grant upon
the service for which the grant is made, is secured by the Appropriation
.4ct, whicn closes the financial procedure of the year. See also Supply and
Way» and Means.
112 PARLIAMENTARY
BALLOT FOR NOTICES OF MOTION.— To obtain priority for a
notice of motion on a day set apart for the consideration of motions before
the Orders of the Day (see p. 128), Members avail themselves of the
b;iIIot held for that purpose on the Table of the House before questions
are asked of the Ministers. The Member seeking such priority enters bis
name upon a paper which is placed in the Speaker's hands, who, when the
number attached to the Member's name has been drawn out and announced
to the House by a Clerk at the Table, calls upon the Member to state to the
House the terms of his motion and the day when it is to be considered.
As it is essential, in the case of an unofficial Member's bill, that it
should be set down for second reading on the earliest Friday in the
session. Members on the first day of the session ballot to obtain priority for
the motions for leave to bring in their bills, as the Members who obtain
the earliest place among those notices of motion are able to choose the
most advantageous Fridays for the second reading of their bills.
BILLS (FUBLIQ.— A bill is the draft of a statute. There are three
modes of iBtrodncing bills to the Honee. (1^ A motion for leave to intro-
duce a bill. (This is necessary for important Government bills.) CJ
Intruduclion ander the so-called ten minutes rule. (3) Presentation of »
bill without previous order for leave to introduce. A bill originated in
the Lords may be laid on the table by a peer without the previoas per-
mission of the House.
Permission having been granted to bring in the bill, three or fonr
Members are appointed to prepare the bill. It is then brnaght in and read
a first time without debate, and a day appointed for the second reading,
previoasly to which it is printed and a copy famished to every Member.
The bill, aAer the second reading, is referred to a Committee of the
whole House, (Mr to a Standing or a Select Committee (see Committees),
whereby its details are considered. The Speaker leaves the Chair for tlie
Committee without question pat, when the bill is considered clause br
clause, and sometimes the bill is largely remodelltd. Sums to be charged
on the public revenue, penalties, &c., are printed in italics; the words in
italics, technically known as blanks, are agreed to without a question
being put, anless a member should propose to alter them. The next pro-
ceeding is the report of the bill to the House by the Chairman of the
Committee, which he does by stating to the Speaker " that the Committee
had gone through the bill," and either "made amendments thereunto" '
or " had directed him to report the same withoot amendment." Tlie
report of a bill is a for^ial proceeding. If no amendments have been made <
the bill is ordered to be read athird time ; but if the Committee have altered I
it, the bill, as amended, is ordered to be taken into eonsidomtion on a
fttture day, when the House proceeds to consider the bill without questions I
pnt. I
TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS. 1 13
On the third reading thejadgment of the House is expressed upon
the entire bill as it finally stands, and only verbal amendments can be
made at this stage, though it is otherwise in the House of Lords. The
question that the " bill do pass," according to present usage, is not put to
the House.
Daring the progress of a bill the House may divide on the following
qnextions : 1st, on the motion for leave to bring in the bill; 2nd, on th*;
first reading ;8rd, on the second reading ;4(b, that the bill be re-committed;
ftlb, that it be read a third time. These are exclusive of divisions on an
instrnclion to the Committee, or on amendments, or clauses added to or
expunged from the measure in or out of the Committee. Alterations cannot
be made in a bill until after its committal. Immediately alter the
passing of a bill, the Clerk of the House takes the bill to the bar of their
Lordships' House, desiring their concurrence, where it passes through the
sainef orma as in the Commons. Pursuant to Standing Order a Commons
bill which has remained 12 days on the table of tlie House of Lords cannot
be proceeded with, save upon 8 days' notice. If abill which has passed the
other House be rejected, no message thereon is sent to either House. When
the Lords agree with the Commons in the principle oft he measure, but difl'er
on niAtters of detail, they return the bill with amendments to which the
Commons agree, with or without amendments, or disagree ; and on the
concurrence between the two Houses over these amendments tne fate of the
bill depends. Procedure by conferences between the Houses is not now
adopted. The same proceedings are adopted mutatis mutandis when the
bill originates in the Upper House. A bill for a general pardon or act of
grace originates with the Crown, and is read once only in each Housf.
The bill having thus passed both Houses.remainswith the Lords, except
n the case of a bill of supply, which is sent back to the Cummons, to
bf by them presented at the bar of the Lords to the Sovereign or the
rowl Commissioners. The assent of the Crown is the final proceeding
which converts abill into an Act of Parliament, which is printed by the
King's printer on vellum, and preserved in the House of Lords. See
Royal Assent, and Conference. See Origin of Bills ; also Rejection of a
Bill.
BILLS (PRIVATE).— Theseare chiefly introduced to enable private indi-
'idoals, associated together, to undertake railways or other works of public
utility at their own risk, and, in a degree, for their own benefit; but
there are other private bills, as those of naturalization, change of name,
divorce, or for perfecting titles to estates, «rc. The parliamentary fees paid
by the promoters of a private bill are fix^d by the Standing Orders of both
Hyues.
H
114 PARLIAMENTARY
BILLS (PROVISIONAL ORDER).— These bills are carried through
Parliament according to the procedure assigned to Private Bills. The ob-
ject of a Provisional Order Bill is to give statutoiy force to Orders
granted (under powers conferred by Statute) by Government Departments,
such as the Home Office, the Board of Trade, Ac, which make provision
for undertakings of public and general utility, such as the improvement
of working men's dwellings, the construction of piers and harbours, gas.
waterworks, and tramways. These bills, which thus effect the purposes of
a private bill, are obtainable with more rapidity, and at a less cost.
BILLS, MOTIONS FOR, AT COMMENCEMENT OP PUBLIC
BUSINESS.— On Tuesdays anl Wednesdays, and on Mondays and
Thursdays for Government bills. Motions for leave to bring in bills
and for the nomination of Select Committees may be set down for
consideration at the commencement of Public Business. If such
Motions be opposed, Mr. Speaker, after permitting, if he thinks fit, a
brief explanatory statement from the Member who moves and the
Member who opposes any such Motion respectively, may without
farther Debate put the Question thereon, or the Question That the
Debate be adjourned.
BLACK ROD (Gentleman Usher of the).- See Serjeant-at-Arms.
BUDGET (THE).— The Chancellor of the Exchequer, or occa-
sionally the First Lord of the Treasury, makes a general statement
every year to the Hoose of Commons, usually in Committee of Ways and
Means, which has for a longtime past been called '*/Ae Budgets This
statement is based uu a review of the income and expenditure of the
last year, and estimates of those of the ensaing year* with remarks opun
the financial prospects of the country, and an exposition of the proposed
repeal, modifications, or imposition of taxes to be accomplished by the
finance bills of the session. See Ways and Means.
BUSINESS, ORDER AND TRANSACTION OP, IN PARLIAMENT.
On each sitting of the Hoase, after the private business, and quest torn
have been asked of the Ministers, the time for the conimeacement ot
public bui^iness has arrived. The Speaker accordingly calls on the Clerk
to read the Orders of the Day, or calls on the member whose motion standi
first on the list of notices, or who is otherwise entitled to precedence.
Bj Standing Order Members may take the oath required by law (or m<ike
the solemn affirmation or declaration permitted instead of the oath),
either before the commencement of public budnessior after it has been
TEKMS AND PKOCEEDINCS. 1 15
dispoiied of. Doriiig ewch teasion the d;«yH ullotled to Government
business are Monday and Thnraday ; after Easter it has precedence on
Topsday evenings, and after 'Whitsuntide at all sittings.
Motions proposed by anofficial MtrmtHirM « lion Id he seconded (except
roo(i<<ns conseqaent npon an order or the d^y or when the House is in
Committee), else it Mia to the ground. AccordintiT to the practice outside
Parliament, when an amendment has been moved, it Is usual to give
precedence to the amendment over the motion on which it is moved i but
in Parliament the practice is that the Speaker or Chairman should read to
the House the original motion, nest that he should read the amendment,
iind then say,** the question I have to put Is, that the words proposed to
be left out (by the amendment) stand part of the question." Should the
'(noes'* prevail, the amendment then becomes h substantive motion, upon
vhicb other amendments may be moved, and considered in lilie manner as
the first. It is sometimes erroneously supposed that a Member who is
adverse both to the original question and to the proposed amendment
would express an opinion favourable to the question by voting ** that the
words proposed to be leit oat stand part of the question." By such a
course, however, he merely declares his opinion to be adverse to the
amrndment. If, however, be t>e equally opposed to the motion and to the
anif ndment, he may vote with the noes on both.
In Parliament it is contrary to order for those engaged in delwte to mention
any Member by name (excepting the Chairman of Committees). It Is alio
out of order to speak in direct terms of any proceedings of the other Houte,
anleu they have been recorded in the votes or orders of the other House. It
■I also irregular to refer to the opinions of the Sovereign} speeches from the
throne and royal messages being treated as tbe sentiments of the ministry
which the Sovereign utters or communicates on their responsibility.
Members speaking in the House of Commons mast address themselves to
tbe Speaker; they may do so from any part of the House, bat their speeches
must not be read. No member may speak more than once npon a question,
rxcept by way of reply or explanation, or in Committee of the whole
House. It is out of order for any Member to cross the House between tbe
Speaker and the Member speaking. (See Conduct of Members, Naming a
Member, Motions, and Resolution.)
In the House of Lords the rules of order differ in some particular from
those olnerved in the Commons. In debate those who speak address the w hole
House, and not the ciiairman. Motions need not here, as in the Commons,
be seconded. The Peer who sits on the woolsack or In the chair of committees
has no duties to perform during the deliberations of the House, excepting to
**put the question." He is not the fudge or guardian of order. If several
Peers rise together, the House decides who shall first be heard. The spealr
H 2
IIG PARLIAMENTARY
or deputj speaker of the Lords Is not disqualified ex t^io from taking a part
in debate. Until the year 1868 the process of voting in the House of Lords
differed from that in the House of Commons, inasmuch as absent Peers were
allowed to vote by proxy. In that year, howerer, a new Standing Order was

CABINET.— The government of a state or (community is anderstood to
signify the exercise uf supreme aatltority, and includes (he executive, the
le^iNlative, and the judicial powers: but in popnlar acceptation it means
only the first of these, the higher and more immediate functions of «hirh
are exercised by the Cabinet, a select body in whom, for the time being,
the whole of the royal authority is vested. Its members all belong to the
Privy Council, but do not inclnde a tithe of that body. The Cabinet if
composed of the more eminent portion of the Administration; it con-
stitutes occasionally, according to recent pracice, almut one-fourth of the
ministry and the officers of state nominated by the Prime Minister, the
persons included in the Cabinet being rarely lesr than ten or more than
seventeen or eighteen. Mr. Iltt's first Cabinet (1783) consisted of but seven
personr. and he himself was the only memlier of the House of Cummons
among those seven. TheCabinet being more immediately retponsible fur llie
conduct of public affairs, their deliberations are Hlways considered confi-
dential, and kept secret even from their colleagues who are leas exalted in
office. The distinguished individual who fills the situation of First Lord oi
the Treasury is generally (though there wa.<« an exception made in 1885}
the chief of the Ministry, and therefore of the Cabinet: he is usually
styled, the "Premier," or "Prime Minister," but more propeily de-
signated as "the head of his Majesty's governmeut.*' It is at his im-
mediate recommendation that his colleagues are appointed, and, with
hardly an exception, he dispenses the patronage of the Cnmo. Eveiy
Cabinet includes the following high officers-— The First Lord of the
Treasury , the Lord Chancellor, the Lord President of the Council, the Lord
Privy Seal, the Chancellor of the Exchequer.and the Secretaries of State.
Sffveral other ministerial functionaries, however, may have s«Ats in the
Cahintti never less than three, and rarely so many as seven or right of this
latter clh»s, are called to that station. Their offices are as follow :— Com.
missioner of Worlcs and Buildings, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster,
First Lord of the Admiralty, President of the Board of Trade, Judge
Advocate-General, Postmaster- Oeneral, Chief Secretary for Ireland, Presi-
dent of the Local Government Board, Chief Justice of England. The selec-
tion usually falls upon those amongst the latter mentioned functionaries,
whose rank, talents, reputation, and political weight render tkem

tb« most Qfseftil auiliaries, or whose services, i»hile in opposition, rnhj
hare created tlie strongest ciaims to ttie honours of the Cabinet. It
has oocasionalljr happened that a statesman, beiuR a Privy Coancillor,
possessing high character and inflaence, accepts a seat in the Cabinet with-
ont nudertaking the labours and responsibility of any particular office.
Although this select council has now been regarded during several genera-
tions as an essential part of our polity, yet it still continues to be unknown
tothe law. The names of the noblemen and gentlemen who compose it are
never offlctally announced to the public. No record is kept of its resolutions
or meetings, nor has its existence ever been recognised by any act of par-
liament. See Crown, and Executive.
CHAIRMAN OP COMMITTEE OP WAYS AND MEANS.— Iliis
oBcer of the House of Ctnnmons— always a Member— is elected by the
House, in Committee of Supply , on t he assembling of every new Parliament.
It is his duty to preside whenever the House is in Committee whether
on bills or any other Committee of the whole House ; he sits, not in the
Speaker's chair, but at the table in the seat of the Cierk of the Honse. The
oaly occasion when he votes, in committee, is in giving the casting vote,
ifon a division the numbers happen to be equal. With the assistance oi
ihr Speaker's Counsel he examines Private Bills to ascertain that they
comply with the law of Parliament. If the unavoidable absence of the
Speaker is announced to the House by the Clerk, the Chairman of Ways
and Means acts as Deputy-Speaker until the close of the bitting; or
he takes the chair on the request of the Speaker. If the unavoidable
kbsence of ihe Chairman is anntinnced, a Deputy-Chairman, who is
entitled to exercise all the powers of Chairman, including those as
Deputy- Speaker, is also appointed at the commencement of every new
Parliunent. The Speaker nominates five members to act, when requested
to do so by Ihe Cliairman of Ways and Means, as temporal y Chairman ot
Committees. See Speaker, his duties, &c.
CHAIRMAN OP COMMITTEES OP THE WHOLE HOUSE.-In thr
Commons, the Chairman of Committees of the whole House is usually
the Chairman of Ways and Means ; in the Lords be is elected by the
House every Session, and usually holds in addition the office of Deputj-
Speaker.
CHILTERN HUNDREDS, &c.— A Member cannot relinquish his seat.
A Member, therefore, who wishes to retire, accepts office under the Crown ,
as BO member can accept an office receiving emolument from the Crown
vithoBt thereby vacating his seat. A Member, accordingly, who wish'-
1 18 PARLIAMENTARY
to resign his seat in the Houae appties to the Treasury, and he receives,
unless causes exist for refasing the applicMtion, one of the nflkes of the
Stewardship of his Majesty's three Chiltern Hundreds— Stolie, Des-
borongh, and Booenham : or the Stewardship of the Manor of Northstead;
sinecures which are retained until the office is wanted for another holder.
The holders of old offices, such as the Secretaries of State ortheChaocfllor
of Exchequer, t.e. offices created before the 26th October, 170S, under the
Act of Anne (which imposed the parliamentary disability upon holders of
Crown offices), can sit in the House ot Cooimous, after re-election on
acceptance of office. The holders of certain departmental offices, either
because they are not held directly from the Crown, or by statutory pro-
vision, can retain their seats in the House without re-election. Ofthc^e
olBces may be mentionrd an ambassador, or foreign minister, the Under-
Secretaries of Slate, or the Secretary to the Admiralty. By the Reform AcU
of I8H7 and 1868 it was enacted that Members who hold the principal
offices of state should not, on the acceptance of other offlce.", thereby vacate
their .seats.
CLERK OP THE PARLIAMENTS. -He, as Clerk of the House of
Lords, i.s responsible for the due record and publication of the proceedings
and journals of the House. In this duty he is assisted by the Clerk Ab-his-
taut and the Reading Clerk, who sit with him at the table of the House.
He is also resipounible for the due conduct of the business of thn Hou.se,
and of the Clerks attached thereto. He signifies the royal assent to
(he billH agreed upon by both Hon:<es of Parliament. He endorses the
bills communicated between the two Houses, and signs orders for the
attendance of witnes-'es, and other orders of the House. The Clerk
of the Parliaments is appointed by the Crown under letters patent
and he appoints the clerks of the departments under his control. The
Clerk Assistant and the Reading Clerk are appointed by the Lord
Chancellor.
CLERK OP THE HOUSE OP COMMONS.— His duty towards the H<3nse
of Commons is analogous to the duties which devolve on the Clerk of the
Parliaments. He sits with the two Clerks Assistant at the table of the
House. He reads alond all such documentii as are by custom or order read
to the House ; he performs the duty ^from his place at the table) of presi-
dent or moderator during the choice of a Speaker, putting, if a difl'erence
occurs thereon, the questions consequent on that occasion, and directing,
it necessary, the House to divide upon the question. The Clerk of the
House is appointed by the Crown by letters patent, and the Clerks Assis-
tant by royal warrant.
TERMS AND PR0CBBDIN08. 119
CLOSURE OP DEBATE (HOUSB OF COMMONS).— After a qaestion
hu been proposed, a Member may rise and claim *'Tbat tbe qaestion
be now pot.'* and unless that motion appears to the Speaker, the Deputy-
sp«aker, or the Chairman of Ways and Means to be an abuse of the Rules
of the House, or an inflrinfement of the rights of the minority, the
qaestion, "That the question be now put," is put forthwith, and decided
without Amendment or Debate. The SUnding Order also enacts that,
alter the Closnae has been carried, consequent motions, clauses, and
pirts of clauses may be similarly proposed atid carried. It is necessary
that the majority in support of the motion should consist of not less than
lou I
COMMITTALS FOR BREACH OP PRIVILEGE.— In common with
oourts of law, the Houkes of Parliament can punish all contempts of their
authority, or repress any aggression committed upon their rights or privi-
Irges; but in the case of the Commons the operation of this power is limited
tn the session of Parliament, committals by that House being annulled
by a prorogati«>n. Persons committed tn prison for contempt cannot be
liberated on bail.
COMMITTEES.— A Committee of the whole House is the HouHe itsvlf
presided over by a Chairman instead of by the Speaker. The function of
kttch a Committee is deliberation and not inquiry; they are appointed to
otusider resolutions ibr the grant or the levy of public money, such as the
Committees of Supply and Ways and Means, or resolutions as aprepara-
liuD for legislation, and also to consider the details of a bill. The
Speaker leaves the Chnir furihwith upon a Committee of the whole House .
Mve in the case of the Committee of Supply, &c. When the House of
Commons is in Committee, the Speaker vacates the Chair, the Mace is
placed under the table, and the Chairman of Ways and Means, or in his
4bieare a temporary chairman, is called on to preside. (8ee Chairman of
Citmmitteea and of Ways and Means.)
Under the Standing Orders two Standing Committees may be nppointed
for the coDsideratian of such hills relating to law and Courts ol Justice and
legal procedure, and to trade, shipping, manufactures, agriculture, and
i>hing,as nay be committed to them ; the procedure in such committees is
the same as in a Select Committee, a nd strangerx are admitted, except when
the Committee shall order them to withdraw. These Committees cannot

aiaendment to ciausea in bills committed to a Standing Committee, given in
the Hoose* stand referred to such Committee ; 20 are the quorum of the
Standing Oommittees. They consist of not less than 60 or more than "
120 PARLIAMENTARY
Members, nominated by the Committee of Selection, who shall have regard
tu the classes of hills committed to such Committees, to the composition of
the Ilonse, and to (he qualifications of the Members selected. The Com-
mittee of Selection nominate a chairman's panel, of not less than four nor
more than six Members.three being a quorum, and the chairman is appointed
from the panel. In 188U the House of Lords also agreed to a Standing;
Order for appointing one or more Standing Committees each Session, and
thereunder appoint such Committees for ** Bills Relating to Law,"&c.,
and for "General Bills" respectively.
Select Committees also are chosen to inquire into and to report to the
House the matters referred to them ; aLso to consider the clauses of bills.
These Committees seldom exceed 20 Members ; and there are also Com-
mittees on private bills. Select Committees are generally empowered by
(he House to send for papers and to summon witnesses. By an Act passed
in 1871, the House of Commons or any Committee thereof is enabled to
administer oaths to w itnesses ; and any person wilfully giving false evidence
is liable to the penalties of perjury. See Privileges of Parliament.
COMMONS, HOUSE OF.— See House of Commons.
CONDUCT OF MEMBERS.— Whenever a Member shaU have been
named by the Speaker or by the Chairman as disregarding the authority of
the Chair} such Member shall be suspended t^m the service of the House.
If any member who has been suspended shall refuse to obey the direction
of the SpealiLer, the Speaker shall call attention to the fact that force is
nece.<sary in order to compel obedience, the member who has refused to
obey shall thereupon be suspended during the remainder of the session.
Suspension does not exonerate the Member from serving on committees to
which he had previously been nominated. Similar disregard of order in
Committee of the whole House is reported to and dealt with by the House.
The Speaker, or the Chairman, orders Members whose conduct
is grossly disorderly to withdraw immediately from the House during
the remainder of that day's sitting; and the SeijeMit-ftt-Arms
actH on such orders as he may receive from the Chair, In pursuance of
this resolution. If, however, the Speaker or the Chairman deems
that his powers under the Standing Order are inadequate, he may
name such Member or Members, or he may call upon the House to
adjudge upon the conduct of such Member or Members.
Members who are ordered to withdraw under this Standing Order,
or who are suspended under Standing Order, must forthwith withdraw
from the precincts of the House, subject, however in the case of
TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS. 121
suspended Members, to the provision regrarding their service on Private
Bill Committees.
Irrelevance or Repetition.— The Speaker or the Chairman, after
having called the attention of the House or of the Committee to the
conduct of a Member who persists in irrelevance or tedious repetition
either of his own arguments or of the arguments used by other Mem-
bers in debate, may direct him to discontinue his speech. See also
Kaming a Member.
CONFERENCE.— This is a method of negotiation between (het\ro Houses
nf Parliament, conducted by manigerit appointed on both sides, for the
purpose of prodacing concnrrence, in c«.«es where mntunl cnniient is neces-
sary ; or for the purpose of reconciling differences which may have arisen.
irth(>'conference be apon the subject of a bill depending between the tuo
Houses, it must be demanded by that House which, at the time of askinc
'he conference, is in possessiou of the bill. It is the privilege of the
Lnrda to name the time and place for holding a conference, no matter by
wtiich House it may have been demanded. Reasons in writing for t he
coarse resolved to be taken are furnished to the managers on both sides,
or a free conference can be held, when the managers attempt by discussion
to effect an agreement between the two Houses. In May, IS&l, it was
agreed both by Lords and Commons that reasons respecting diDer-
rnces of opinion on any bill, or other proceeding, might be communicated
to either Honse by message Arom the other, and this method has in effect
superseded procedure by conference. See also Bills, Public.
CONSOLIDATED FUND, THE, is the fund established by Act 27,
Geo. III., cap. 13, formed of the proceeds of taxation, and otiier sums
received by the Treasury in behalf of the Crown, in order that a fund may
be provided "into which shall flow eveiy stream ol the public revenue,
and from whence shall issue the supply for every public service."
CONTEMPT OF PARLIAMENT.— See Committals.
C0UNT8-OUT (in the Honse of Commons).— The Speaker, if necess»ry,
cv>antsthe House when he takes the Chair, and after four o'clock, if forty
Mrmbers are not present or do not assemble in two minutes, as indicntcd
by the sand-glass upon the table, the House stands adjourned to ihf
neit day of meeting. This also takes place during a silting, on the
demand of a Member that the House be counted. At an evening »itting,
ti>e Honae shall not be counted before 10 o'clock, but if on a division being
taken on any business, and 40 members are not present, the business shall

Such an Hdjournntenl is called a " Count-out."
CROWN.— The prerogatives and functions ofthe Crown may be sammed
up under the following heads:— To give or reftase to bills the "Rojal
Asaent" (which see); to cause the due administration and execntion of
the laws ; to acton behalf of the whole community in its interoonrse with
Foreign States, and as a part of that, to declare war or conclude peace; to
direct the naval and military force of the country ; to administer the public
revenue ; to prorogue or dissf^ve Parliament ; to create peers; and to coia
money. The monarch is the supreme governor of the Church ; the source ot
justice and of mercy, of all offices, honours, emoluments, and chartered
rights. But in every case the sovereign acts by ministers who are amenable
to Parliament, and the choice of those ministers is the only prerogative
which can be constitutionally exercised without responsible advisers; bat
even over this, thwe is much Parliamentary control, for the royal favoor
can hnve no practical eftect, unless it rest upon men whose characters and
meii.surf4 prove generally acceptable to both Houses. (See Cabinet.)
DEBATE, RULES OF. — A Member desiring to speak rises in his place
uncovered, and addresses himself to Mr. Speaker ; but no Member may
speak twice to a question, except in explanation or reply, which is allowed
to a Member who has made a substantive motion to the House. A Member
may not read his speech, but he may refresh his memory by reference to
notP8. A Member who rises to speak mustdirecthis speech to the question
before the House, or to a motion or amendment which he intends to move,
or to a question of order. When an amendment has been moved which
seeks to substitute for a motion words more or less at variance thereto,
debate is not restricted to the amendment, but includes the motive of the
amendment and of the motion, both matters being under the consideration
of the House, as alternative propositions ; but if the amendment be to add
words only, debate is restricted to the desirability of the addition of tho»e
words. No Member may speak to any question after the same has been
fully put by Mr. Speaker ; and a question is fully put when the Speaker
has collected the voices, both of the Ayes and of the Noes. When two
or more Members rise to speak, Mr. Speaker calls upon the Member who,
on rising in his place, is first observed by Mr. Speaker ; but if the Speaker's
call be questioned, the House can determine which Member shall be heard.
A new Member, who has not yet spoken, is generally called upon, by
courtesy, in preference to other Members rising at the same time. A
Member who has moved the adjournment of a debate is, if he claima the
nrivilege, allowed precedence in addressing the House when the debate is

resumed, or he may subsequently join in the debate. By the indulgence
of the house, a M«mbf r may make a personal explanation, although there
be no question before the House ; but no debatable matter may be brought
forward, or debate arise upon the explanation. See Closure, &c.
DISSOLUTION.— See Sittings of Parliament.
DIVISIONS, MODE OF TAKING.— After the Question has been put
by the Speaker, or Chairman, and his statement as to the preponderance of
the "Ayes," or "Noes," as the case may be, has been challenged,
the division bells are set in motion, and two minutes are allowed to
elapse for the assembling of absent Members. The doors are then
locked, and the Question is again put. If the statement from the Chair is
again challenj^ed, the Speaker, or Chairman, directs the "Ayes" to go
into the Right Lobby and the "Noes " into the Left Lobby, and appoints
two Tellers for each. As the Members pass through the Lobbies, the
Division Clerks take their names, and their number Is counted by the
Tellers. The result being reported by the Tellers to the Speaker, or
Chairman, he declares the number to the House. (See also Speaker of
the HOUlte of Commons.) rr,rrr r^ xx rrr^m r
DIVISIONS FRIVOLOUSLY CLAIMED.— The Speaker or the Chair-
man may,after the lapse of two minutes as indicated by the sand-glass,
if in his opinion the Division is frivolously or vexatiously claimed, take
the Vote of the House or Committee by calling upon the Members who
support and who challenge his decision successively to rise in their
places, and he shall thereupon, as he thinks Ht, either declare the deter-
mination of the House or Committee, or name tellers for a Division.
EXECUTiyE.— Thetollowingoomprise the principal departments of the
execotive government:— The Treasury and Exchequer, the AdmlrNlty,
the War Office, the Home Office, the India Office, the Colonial Office,
the Board i»f Trade, the Foreign Office, the Board of Works, the Office
of the Privy Seal, the Office of the Duchy of Lancaster, Secretaiy for
Scotland, the Office of Chief Secretflry for Ireland, the Local Govern-
ment Board, the Post Office, the Privy Council Office, the Board
of Edocatinn and the Board of Agriculture. The public function-
aries to whom the conduct in chief of these several departments is
eatrasted, together with the great officers of the royal household,
ooastitnte what is termed the Ministry or Administration. Its members
vary according to circumstances, rarely exceeding fifty or sixty persons.
The Administration usually resign when they lose the ct>nftdence of either
House of Parliament; or they may be dismissed by the Sovereign » and if
124 PARLIAMENTARY
is competent for either Hoase to present an address to the throne, praying
their dismissal. The members of a government are understood to onncnr
in principles of legislation and policy, and co-operate in Parliament upon
all matters not specifically agreed on as open qaestions. Their chief
is generally the First Lord of the Treasury. When a Commoner, he
sometimes combines with that office the Chancellorship of the Excheqatr,
or another office, as that of Lord Privy Seal. The offices which are prinri-
pally or exclusively occupied with the collection of the public revenue
are the Cnstoms, the Excise, the Stamps, the Post Office, the Office nf
Assessed Taxes, the Crown Landb, &c.
HOUSE OP LORDS.— The Strangers' gallery, as in the Commons, is not
opened till after prayers. Their Lordships frequently sit during the da;
as a Court of Appeal, but do not usually assemble in their legislatire
capacity until a quarter-past four in the afternoon, and on Tuesdays, the
day appointed for the Standing Committees, at half-past five. On the
opening or closing of the session, the meeting of the House generally
takes place at two oVIouk. When the royal assent is to be given to bills
by commission, the time of meeting is fixed to snit the occasion. A C<»m
mission for giving the Royal Assent in itself constitutes a House. lu ISSl*.
the Lords by Standing Order provided that if on a division in any stage i>t
a bill in the House or in Committee thirty lords are not present, the ques-
tion is not drcided, and the debate is adjourned to the next meeting. It is
contrary to the Commons'privileges that the Honseof Lords should initiate
or amend bills dealing with public expenditure or revenue, and bills ur
amendments of such a nature are therefore laid aside or disagreed to by lUc
Commons ; but the House of Lords can reject a money bill, as in thecase
of the Paper Duties Bill of I860.
The jurisdiction of the House of Lords as a court of Ultimate Appeal « a:
constituted nnderan Act psssed in 1876, which came into operation in M ir.
of that year. The Lords of Appeal consist of the L«)rd Chancellor (prt- .
siding) and four Lords of Appeal in ordinary, three constituting a quorum,
and may also include such peers of Parliament as hold or have held hii,h
judicial office ; there is nothing in the Act to prevent lay peers also atteiut
ing. The Lords of Appeal in ordinary receive each a life Peerage as a
Baron, conferring a se.it in the Honse of Lords.
HOUSE OF COMMONS.— The House used to sit in St. Stephen's Chaprl.
the chapel of the Royal Palace of Westminster, until the year 1834, when
that building was destroyed by ftre. St. Stephen's Hall noir occupies the site
of the former House of Commona; the basementstory of St. Stephen's Chapel,
namely , the sub chapel, still exists. The present House of Commons is at

the north end of the FHace; technically speaking, the House does not
iBclade the gxlleries at each end of the chamber, or the space below
the Bar. It was first ased 30th May, 1850. Above the Speaker's chair
is a gallery for the Reporters. The galleries opposite are reurved for
prers, Ibreign ministers, special visitors, and strangers, to whom the
largri portion of the gallery is assigned, and who obtain access by orders
obtained from the Speaker's secretary. Disttngntshed foreigners and other
Tuitors are also seated below the Bar. Ladies are excluded from the
House uf Commons, bnt there is a gallery Hbove that of the Keftorters
rr»n which, concealed by a grating in front, they are allowed an imper*
lectTiewof the House. The Ladies' Gallery is now approached by a
'* liit." The galleries are opened as soon as the Speaker Ukes the chair .
Formerly the House met at 8, 9, and 10 o'clock in the mr.ming. During
the century previcui to 1888 the time of meeting was a quarter before 4 o'clock,
when the Speaker took his seat at the table, and the Chaplain read prayers.
In 1888 the time of meeting was changed to 3 o'clock, except on Wednesdnys
and Saturdays. In 19U2 the time was changed to 2 o'clock for an aReruoon
sitting, except on Fridays. The Strangers' and Reporters' galleries are then
opened, and as forty generally attend, busineu begins. If, before he takes the
Chair, thfl speaker feels Imund to ascertain the number present, he counts,
and if lorty members do not appear at 4 o'clock, the House is adjourned to
(he next day at the customary hour. At 7.30 the afternoon sitting is feos-
pendcd antil 00, when the evening sitting commences with adjourned
prit-ate tMsineas (if any) and Government business. On Fridays the House
meets at noon and sits till6, if theordersofthe day are not sooner disposed of.
On other days there was until lately no lime fixed for rising, but in 1888, by
Standing Order, after 12 o'clock no opposed business can be taken, and the
siting Is closed at 1 oVlock. (SeeSittings of the House.) The longest sitting
00 record of the House of Commons in modern times occurred during the
Debate on the Protection of Person and Property (Ireland) Bill, when the
debate was prolonged fur 41 hours, viz. from 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the
31st Jan., 1881, till 9 o'clock in the morning of the 2nd Feb. The House
does not usually sit on Saturday : when it does, it meets at noon, and seldom
itts late into the evening of that day. At the opening of each session the
time of meeting is 2 o'clock, when the spee.'h from the Throne is delivered,
and the two houjies reassemble for business at 4 o'clock. See also Business,

MOTIONS. — Every proceeding in Parliament is based on a motion made
by a Member (and seconded, if required), whereon the question is
put from the Chair, which is decided by the House in the afflrmatiTe or th«
negative. A substantive motion, i.e. a motion not consequent on the pro-
ceeding before the House, such as motions calling upon the House
to muke an order, or to agree to a resolution, must be made upon a
notice printed on the notice paper for the sitting when the motion
is made, and these motions, as a rule, muKt be moved by the Member in
whose name the motion stands. Many motions made in the House are
formal motions that arise from the proceeding in which the Houf^e is
engaged, such as motions for adjournment, and on a report from a Com-
mittee, &c. Previous notice of these motions of necessity cannot be given.
Motions, save motions consequent on an order of the day., or made in
Committee, require a seconder, although in practice the Speaker does not
call upon a sec->nder of a motion, unless the propriety of tlie cull be
obvious. See also Ballot for Notices of Motion.
MOTIONS FOR LEAVB, &c.— See Bills. Motions for.
NAMING A MEMBER.— If a Member is guilty of persistent disorder,
the Speaker calls the particular attention of the House to him and to his
conduct by calling upon the Member by his name, and thereby shows that
such Member has incurred the displeasure and censure of the House. How

that displeasure may take effect was in former times a matter of some
ancertaintjr, and hence arose that standing parliamentary jest that a
Speaker once confessed," Heaven knows what would be the result if he
aamed a Member." Tbatuncertainty is, however, to a considerable extent
rrmoved, for when the Speaker has named a Member, a motion mnst be
nade forthwith that the Member be suspended from the service of the
House. See also Conduct of Members.
NEW PARLIAMENT ; ELECTION OP SPEAKER, &c.-On the day
appointed by Royal Proclamation for the return of the writs, after a
General Election, the Members meet in each House. In the House of Lords
the Commissioners representing the Sovereign sit, and before these
Commissioners the Commons are summoned, as upon the commencement
of an ordinary session. Both Houses are then informed by the Lord
Chancellor, one of the five Lords Commissioners, that as soon as the
Members have been sworn, the Sovereign will declare the cause of
their being called together; and the Commons are then directed to
proceed to their chamber forthwith, and there elect a Speaker who is
to be presented next day for the Sovereign's approval. New Peers having
been introduced in the Lordf, that House adjourns to the next day. Mean-
while, the Commons proceed in their own House to elect their Speaker.
The process uf election is, briefly, as follows. The Clerk of the House
rises in his place at the table and points to a Member (previously prepared
as to the course that is to be taken), and without having spoken a word
he fthe Clerk) sits down again. The Member indicated then rises and,
addressing the Clerk, proposes that some other Member (who also has
been previously prepared for the motion), "do take the Chair of this House
as Speaker." The motion is seconded by another Member, usually one
who ha« been Leader of the House of Commons, or has held a similar post
of importance. On the motion being carried, and the Member proposed
to be elected expressing his willingness to accept the office, the new
Speaker is conducted to the Chair, from which he addresses the House in
a speech of thanks, Ac. If another Memoer is proposed for the office, the
claims of each nominee are discussed in a debate, and decided upon, if
nreessary, by a division. The Mace, which had been placed below the

littings of the House with Mr. Speaker in the Chair.
Next day the Speaker himself, at the head of the Commons, presents him*
i(lf tothe Royal Commissioners attending in the House of Lords to receive
him, and the Sovereign's approval of the election of the Speaker is accorded .
Mr. Speaker afterwards making one of the speeches which give him his
oame, and therein claiming, as he says, for himself, and on behalf of the
128 PARLIAMENTARY
Commonii, "all their ancient and undoubted rights and privileges." The
Sovereign has in former times appeared in person in these proceedings
(and on one occasion, in the year 1678, the "gracious approval" of the
elected Speaker was withheld), bat of late years the Commissioners re-
present the King, or Queen, who usually does not appear upon tlie scene
until two or three days later, the day namely appointed for the formal open-
ing of Parliament and the delivery of the King's, or Queen's, *' Speech."

ORDERS OF THE DAT.— These are the stages of bills and other matters
already ordered to be taken into consideration, and so forming part of the
appointed business of each day's sitting. Orders of the Day may be
superseded by an amendment snbstitating for it a resolotion of the
House; or beoume " dropped " when, if the order of the day is read, no
action be taken thereon. Sach orders as are not reached, owing to a prior
adjournment of the Huu»e, are put down for the next sitting. For*' Passing
to (he Orders of the Day," see Previous Question.
ORIGIN OF BILLS. -Generally speaking, with the Crown originate
bills ofamnesty {—with the House of Lords all bills relating to a restitutiOD in
blood and to restitution of honours;— with the House of Commons all bills
relating to the public income and expenditure, which must receive tlie
previon.s recommendation of the Crown. BillsafTecting tberoja] prerogative
require the consent of the Crown. It is considered discourteous for one House
to take the initiative in any measure aflecttng the privileges ol the other.
It has always been held that in the Lords should originate bills of ** pains and
penalties^'* or other measures founded upon oral testimony, mainly because
until a comparatively recent date (1871) the Commons had not the power
possessed by the Lords of examining witnesses upon oath.

PARLIAMENT.— The Commons are not the Parliament, neither ar« tlje
Lords nor the Crown ; but the Sovereign and three <* Estates " ol the realm,
the lords spiritual, the lords temporal, and the commons, united, constitute
the High Court of Parliament, and exercise the legislative Amotions of the
realm ; though it is usual to speak of the King, Lords, and Commons as
TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS. |29
the -three branches of the Legislatore." A peer is as much a mem-
ber of Parliament at a commoner, while the Crown is a whole estate of
ParlUment centred in the person of an individual. Thetwo Mouses convened
by royal authority, and acUng jointly with the Crown, constitute the Legis-
Uture or Rsrlianient » and its acU are called IndlfTerently «« Statutes** or «« Acts
of Parliament;'* they hare the full force and efftet of law. (See «« Bills/')
Parliament fully assembled consists of the Kinff, with the two estates
of the peerage, sitting in one House, and the Commonalty by their repre-
lentatiFCs standing below the bar. Neither of the Houses ever delibe.
raU$ in the presence of the Sovereign, nor will either of them permit any
allusion in debate to his sentiments. The King, Lords, and Commons,
in their onitedcharact««r,exercisenonebutthelegislativefunctions. Taken
together they are the Parliament, and there can be no Act of Parliament
in which they do not concur. (See Royal Assent.) The power of Parlia-
ment is held to be tranxendent, and subject to no limitation whatever. An
Actof Parliament binds every subject, and even the Sovereign, when speciaUy
named therein ; and no aothority less than that of Parliament can dispense
with or abrogate a statute. In addition to this legislative character,
common to the three, each has separate functions peculiar to itself. In
•he Sovereign resides the whole executive authority. The House of Lords
exercises judicial authority as a court of Ultimate Appeal, and as a tribunal
to which great oiBners of State, impeached by the other House, are
amenable. (See also House of Lords, and House of Commons.)
PEERS OP PARLIAMKNT.-The Peerage of Great Britain and Ireland
may be described as conaisting of, Ut, the Peers of England ; 2ndly, those
of Scj>tland ; 3rdly, thoj-e of Ireland ; 4(hly, those of Great Britain ; and,
Sthly, those of the United Kingdom ; according to their patents of
creation. In the House of Lords, all Peers of England have seats and
votes » have all of Great Britain, and of the United Kingdom. It fre-
quently happens that Peers of England, Great Britain, or the United
Kingdom, hold an equal or superior rank in the peerage of Scotland or that of
Ireland; in which case, though popularly known by the higher dignity, they
Kill have seats and votes in the Hou.e as of the inferior ranlt. It sometimes
lappens also that the eldest son of a peer has a seat in the House during the
lifetime of his fathei. The Rirl of Lovelace so sat as Baron Wentworth (by
courtesy Viscount Ockham), he having succeeded to the barony through
fcs mother. On the death of the Ist Earl of Lovelace (1893), Lord
Wentworth became 2nd Earl, and his title. Baron Wentworth, became
•erged in the higher dignity. The peers of ScoUand and Ireland have
I place m the House only by their representatives, of which Ireland sends
a, who are elected for life, and Scotland 16, chosen for each new Parlla-
(\
130 PARLIAMENTARY
ment. By the Act of Union, no Iriah Peer enjoying a British dignity can be
elected a RepretentaUve Peer. But the caw of an Irish Representative ob-
taining an English Peerage after his election was not adverted to t thme hxve
consequently been Irish representatives sitting by their Irish dignities,
thou^ holding also English baronies. With a view to diminishing the
number of non-representative Irish peers, but few new creations have been
made during late years. The latest creations are the Dnkedom of Abercorn
and the Ban>nyof Rathdonnel (1868), and the Barony nf Kedleston (1898).
Irish Peers, not representative, may sit in the House of Commons k^r
other than Irinh constituencies, but Scotch Peers may not. In adiUtion
to the hereditary Peers of Parliament, the four Judges nf Appeal have
the dignity of Barons for life, and nre summoned to Parliament as aach
during their tenure of office. The two Archbishops, the Bishopa ot
London, Durham, and Winchester, and SI of the remaining Bishops of
England and Wwles, have seats in the House of Lords, not as Peers,
but as Lords Spiritual of Parliament. The five flrat-mentioned prelates
have their seats on appointment ; the others take seats by seniority
of consecration, the junior Bishops being for the time excluded. The
Bishop ofSodor and Man has no seat in Parliament.
PRTITION8.— Tlieite musit proceed firoin British sutijects or foreigners
resident in this country. When intended for the House of Lords, a petition
must be addressed, "To the Right Honourable the Lords Spiritual and
Temporal in Parliament assembled;" when addressed to the House or
Commons, it nuy be directed, ** To the Honourable the Knights, Citiaens,
and Burgesses of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in
Parliament assembled i" but more usually in thif form, **To the Honour-
able the Commons of the United Kingdom in Parliament assemlWed.**
Its commencement must describe the petitioners thus: " The humble-
petition of the electors of the parish of showeth that," dec. or. ira
the case of an individual, his name and occupation must be state*.^
thus: **The humble petition of John Brown, carpenter, showeth that,** dec
The statement of grievance must then follow} and the whole musr
conclude with a specific prayer. The omission of a prayer ia fhtal to i
the reception of a petition, for no mete remonstrance or detail of griew- -
ances will be received. The prayer should be thus introduced : ** Whemu.
fore your petitioners humbly pray that your Honourable House will t»«
pleased to," dec, the particular relief expected being here stated.. To t>»«
whole petition must be added the words, ** And your petltionera as ».«3
duty bound will ever pray, &c. ;» immediately thereupon mustfoUow the sis^.

parchment, aa the petition— not pasted or otherwise appended. The signature^ a
TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS. 131
or marks must be original— not copies nor signatures of agents on behalf o
ofheni, except in the case of illness ; thus no chairman of a public meeting
can sigti for the whole meeting; in the caf«e of snch an informality the
petition is received only as that of the individnal signing. But the
common seal of a Corporation Is received as the petition of the whole
rorporate body, and the Corporations of London and Dublin have tlie right
to petition without the intervention of a member. The address of each
petitioner must be affixed to his signature. A printed, lithographed, or
type- written petition will not be received ; it must l>e in writing on parch
ment or on paper, free from erasures or interlineations, and composed
in English, or accompanied by a translation, which the inreaentinf mem-
ber certifies to be correct ; but no letters, affidavits, or other documents,
can be annexed. Petitions are rejected if not respectful and temperate
in lanicuage, free tVom imputations upon the character and conduct of either
House of Parliament, the Courts of Justice, or other constituted autho-
rities. No reference is permitted to any debates, or to any motions supposed
to be in preparation ; while petitions, praying for a grant of public money or
for the remission of customs, stamps, or other duties (when payable by any
person) can only be received on the recommendation of the Crown. The
presenting memt>er is expected to affix his name to the heginntnfi of the
ptrtition, as well as to examine whether all the necessary conditions have
been complied with ; and, though no debHte is allowed on a petition, the
Committee on Public Petitions subseqnently subject all those documents to a
severe scrutiny. Petitions for presentation may be forwarded by post free of
charge, to any member of either House, in parcels open at the ends, merited
outside," Pariiamentary Petitions," and not exceeding 39 ounces in weight.
PRESS GALLERY.— Galleries have Ijeen constructed and set apart for
the use of the reporters for the press in the House of Lords since October
\b, 1831, in the Hoase of Commons since February lU, 1885. See also
Strangers.
PREVIOUS QUESTION, MOVING THE.— When a motion has been
made upon which the House is unwilling to come to a decision, the motion
can be withheld from the decision of the House by moving " tJie Previous
ttoestion," or by an amendment to the motion proposing that " the House
do now proceed to the Orders of the Day," or « do pass to the public busi-
feess of tlie day." These amendments, which, if agreed to,set aside theoriginal
■notion, can only be moved on privilege motions, which are brought for-
«rard without notice before the public business is commenced. The form
Bf the "Previous Question" in the House of Commons is "That that
Question (i.e. the original motion) be not now put." If the "Previous
I 2
il
132 PARLIAMENTARY
Question" be agreed to, the original motion cannot be put from the
Chair, though it can be proposed on a subsequent occasion. In the Houi^e
of Lords the form for the " Previous Question " is " whether the original
question be now put," and those who support the "Previous Question '
vote against that motion.
PRIVILBGE8 OP PARLL\MENT.— These are of three kindst 1st, the pri-
vileges which appertain to members indiTlduaily ; 2nd* those which belong
to either House in its collectire capacity ; 3rd, those of both Hoosee Joint] j.
Prom well-known precedents it appears that the Lords and Commonr,
actmg concurrently, can assume the supreme power whenever the throne
is vacant, or the Sovereign incapable of exercising the royal fonrtions, si
happened 'at the Revolution in 1688 { in 1788, when a regency was ofiercd
to the Prince of Wales, though George IIL recovered so speedily that it
became unnecessary t in 181£, when a restricted regency was appointed ;
and, subsequently, when the restrictions were removed. The separate
privileges of either House are extensive, but they are, at the same time,
uncertain and ind<rfinite. Amongst them are the power of rommittiiig^
individuals to prison, the power nf publishing matters which, if not
issuing firom such high authority, might become the subject of prixreed-
ings in a court of law, the power of directing the Attomey.General to prosecute
persons accused of offbnces against the laws, or afibcting the privilege of Par.
liainent, and, finally, a power vested in each House respectively of doing an\
thing iu Hccordance with the law of Parliament— which may be neces-
sary for the vindication or protection of itself in the exercise of its ou n
cnnstitulionMl functions. In the daily proceedings of Parliament question^
of privilege take precedence of all other business. The privileges of tndlridua I
Memberb of Parliament are freedom of speech and person. Including fircedom
from legal arrest and imprisonment. Parhamentary privilege, however,
does not extend to Indictable oflfences, to contempu of the courts of
justice, or to cases nude felonies and misdemeanors by the laws o(
bankinptcy. By bankruptcy, a Member's seat becomes vacant. Members
of Parliament are exempt from obeying subpoenas, and serving on Juriea.
" PrivOege of Fsriiament " continues to Peers at all times, and to Commonera
for a ** convenient" time after prorogation and dissolution.
Peers are entitled to be present at the coronation of the Sovereign, ana if
Parliament be in session at the time, the Commons also attend, with tftseir
clerks and officers. Peers cannot be outlawed in any civil action, nor can
any attachment lie against their persons ) they are exempt from atteadknc
courtsleet, or the posse^omitatus } when arraigned fisr any criminal ol1bnc«,
it must l>e twfure their peers, who relorn a verdict, not npon oath, batBf>on
honour ; they also have the privilege of sitting covered in courts of juaticc.
la 1871 an act was passed by which Peers becoming bankrupt, or in
TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS. 133
Scatland having their estatm sequestrated, are disqualifted from sitting or
voting until after the bankruptcy is annulled, or the debts discharged.
See also Committals for Breach of Privilege.
PROGRESS, REPORT OP.— A Committee of the whole House cannot
^i^ourn its sittings, or any proceeding therein, to n further day. If the
transactions with which a Committee is charged are not completed, in
the Lords, when the House is resumed, the Chairman moves " That the
House be again put into Committee" on a future day, and in the
Commons, he reports " progress," and asks leave to sit again.
The motion that the Chairman do report progress is also used in
Committee in order to interrupt or to arrest the procedure therein, in
the same way that motions for adjournment are moved in the House-
PROROGATION,— See Sittings of ParlUment, InterrupUon of.
QUESTION.- When a motion has been made and seconded, it merges
in theqnestion which is proposed by the Speaker to the House. Tlierc
upon debate arises, and amendments may be moved thereto.
When a question has been proposed from the Chair, the question, sub
ject to amendments, must be decided by the House in the affirmative or
negative, or the question may be avoided by the proposal of the previous
question, or it may; be withdrawn upon unanimous leave given by
the House. When debate on a question is closed, the question
must be put. The Speaker rises, states the question to the House,
beginning with "The question is that," and takes the sense of the
House thereon by desiring that "as many as are of that opinion say
' Aye' or 'Noe»*' (in the Lords the form is " Content" or "Not Con-
tent ") . The Speal:er in reply to the response made by the House says,
"I think the Ayes (or the Noes) have it," and if that statement be not
challenged, he finaUy declares, "So the Ayes (or the Noes) have it." If
the Speaker's statement, "I think, Ac," be cliallenged, he directs the
House to divide. (See also Debate and Divisions.)
QUESTIONS TO MINISTERS. -Notices of que.»tion8 must be given
by members in writing to tlie Clerk at the table, and are taken at a
qoarter past two. No questions are taken after tive minutes before three
eicept those whi<^h have not been answered in consequence of the
ii'Meace of .the minister to whom they are addressed. Any member who
desires an oral answer may distinguish it by an asterisk, but notice rnunt
"P;>earun the notice paper of the day before that on which an answer is
desired. If questions are not distinguished by an asterisk or the member
h not present to ask it, or if it is not reached before live minutes to three
134 PARLIAMENTARY
the answer will b« printed with tbe votes, unless the member has
signified his desire to postpone the qoestion.
QUORUM.— See House of Lords and House of Commons.
REJECTION OF A BILL.— The usual mode of moving the rejection
of a measure is by moving an amendment to the question. That the bill
be now read the second time, whereby, if agreed to, the House order
that the bill be read a second time ou this day six mouths. See also
Bills.
REPORTERS fPARLIAMENTARY).-SeePre88Galleryand Strangers.
RESOLUTION.— A Resolution of the House consists of an entry in the
Journal which batons with the word " Resolved." This form is used when
the House arrives at decisions regarding its future conduct, snch as art-
embodied in the Standing Orders, or when the House gives expression tn
its collective opinion, as in a resolution that the Ministry do not possess
the confidence of the House, or when the House expresses an adverse opinion
upon a bill by substituting for the motion that the bill be read a second
time, a declaration that, for specified reasons, it is undesirable that the bill
should become law.
When the House determines that a return should be made to the House,
or that a matter should be dealt with on a future day, the Journal entry
begins with the word "Ordered That, &c." See also Orders of the Day.
ROYAL ASSENT— The act by which the Crown agrees to a blU which has
pasted both Houses is called** The Royal Assent,*' which may be given by the
Sovereign in person robed, crowned,and seated on the throne in the House of
Lords, or the royal assent may be given by commissioners appointed by the
Crown for that special purpose and for the single occasion. The furmsobMerved
in both cases do not vary, and are as follow:— The Lords being assembled in
their own House, the Sovereign or the Commissioners seated, and the Commons
nt the bar, the titles of the several bills which have passed both Mouses u«
read, and the King or Queen's answer Is declared by the Clerk of the Ite*! la-
ments in Norman French. To a bill of supply (which on being presented
by the Spealcer has the precedence of other bills) the assent is given ta the
following words i—*'i:.e roy (or, la reyne) remercte set bong tufett^ meetptt
fntrbinivolenee et airuile 9euU,^* To public general bills it Is given In theaa
terms:— **/<e roy for, la reyne) It vetiM.'* To a private bill it is thus de-
clared :—**Sot( fait comme U est detiti.^* Should the Sovereign refuse

force and effect of law, unless some time for the commencement of its opera-
tioB should have been specially appointed.
RULES OP PROCEDURE.— See Ba»neMi, Debate, Motions, Standing
Orders, &c.
SERJEANT AT ARMS.— There are two officers bearing this titlr,
appointed bj the Crown to attend the Houses of Fvllsment, and each has a
dsputjr. In the House of Lords, the maintenance of decorum below the bar,
iioar the throne, and in the gallery, devolves upon the (tentleman and ye«inun
nsher of the BiNck Rod, with their as^i»tant^ so that ** the Serjeant at Arms
attending the House of Lords" haa less conspicuous duties to perfbrm than
tbosa which devolve upon** the Serjeant at I ending the House of Commoni>)"
both, however, execute the commands of the House to whtch they belong, as
regards the apprehension or custody of all persons committed by order of
Psrliament. In the House of Commons, the Sorfeant at Arms is an officer
of considerable importance, assisted by a deputy and several subordinate
ofRcers; during the sittings of the House he occupies a chair close to
the bar, and he diiects a large proportion of the arrangements connected
with the maintenance of order in the approaches to the House and the
oflices adjacent. He is at once the executlvo and th« ceremonial officer
of the lower House. He discharges the duties appertaining to his office
>nd givea efiect to the directions of the House, communicated through the
Speaker. The office is usually held by a gentleman of the military profesiion
SESSION.—The term session, applied to the sittings of any public assembly,
vould be generally understood to signify the period during which they >at
without any intermission or recess { but in Iteliamentary language it has u
more extensive stgniflcation. Unless Parliament be prorogued, the session
is not closed. The House of Commons takes care to limit to one year the
duration of certain Acts of Parliament, such as the Army (annual) or
Motiny Act, and ceruin statutes authorising the levy of taxes, &c., without
viiich the Government of the country could not be carried on ; and the
Crown, therefore, is compelled to resort to an annual assemblage of Parlia-
■neat, which usually takes piece in the beginning of February, though special
ciicunutancee may sometimes lead to the appointment of an earlier period.
Six days at lease, butgenerally thirty or fbrty days previous to the intended
ncetiag, a pmclamation Is bsued by the Crown, commandfaag the attendanr
136 PARLIAMENTARY
of the Lords and Common i, nmully at Westminster; Init It may be at any
place within the United Kingdom. The Houses being assembled, the
So?erelgn meets them in the House of Lords, either in person, or by
Lords Commissioners, and decliires the cansesoi the nommons by a Speech,
prepared beforehand by the Cabinet. Thas does a seMsion cnmmencr.
The circumstance of either or both Houses adjourning their sittings,
whether vith or without the recommendation of the Crown, does not ter-
minate the tesaion. To effect that, there must he the prorogation of
Parliament, under a royal commission, or by the Sorereign in person.
The progress which a measure makes in one session does not influence
itfl position in the next, or in any others for if not completed previous
to prorogation, it mu.tt in any following session be commeuoed
de novo; though private bills are occasionally bU»p«nded from one
Hcsaion to anotlirr. The business usually transacted on the first day of
every session is to take into consideration the speech nrom the throne ; Imt
for "form's sake," a bill always receives a first reading, in order, it Is
said, to show that Fariiament is not obliged to give precedence to the
siibiects contained in the royal speech. In the year 1763, in 1817, and on
various other occasions, the consideration of the King's speech haa been
delayed by discussions on other subjects, but generally the practice ia to
proceed with it at the afternoon sitting, namely, in about two or three hours
after the speech has been delivered.
The usual duration of the session is fi-om February to August ; but no num-
ber or length of adjournments destroys tti continuity. In the year I6£l, the
House of Commons adjoivned its sittings For five months; but yet it was held
that the session had not terminated. Tl>e session of 18iJ8 ran into 1894,
heint; the Innpent scj^sinn on record, except in the case of the Long Parlia-
ment. In 1A49, it is recorded that Parliament sat through the Christmas
holidays, Christmas Day alone excfpted. f See Sittings of Parliament, New
Parliament, &c.)
SIX MONTHS (THIS DAY).— See Rejection of a Bill.
SITTINGS OP PARLIAMENT, INTERRUPTION OP, &c.— The pri.-
ceedinRS of Parliament may be intermpted or suspended either by ad-
joornment, prorn(ration,or dissolution. Adjournment, as the term imports
is a postponement ofthesit.tingorproceedingii of either Mouse of Parliament
from .)ne time, to another Npecitied for the reassemblage of the Hoose, or
the re^uinptiun of tiio business wliich was adjourned. Tlio interruption
of a sitting of both Houses by royal authority is called prorogation. l)is-
xolation puts an end to the representative character of the individaals
who at the time compose the House of Commons, as well as to that of the
TERMS AND PROCEEDINGS. 137
Scottish RepreFentatire Peers, and Parliament cannot again assemble antil
after a general election.
The power of adornment is inherent in each Honse respectively, and
no precise restraints apon this power are preacrilied by the constitation.
Either Hoase may interrupt or postpone any debate, defer the consideration
of any raeasnre, or adjourn its sittings. The Lords frequently adjoarn
"daring pleasare," which means that the Lord Chancellor or other
Speal(er of the House may, in the exercise of his discretion, take his
ieat on the woolsack, two other Peers being present, and resume busi-
ness at any hour within the day on which such Mdjonrnment "during
pleasure" has taken place, otherwise their Lordships' House will
stand adjourned to the usual hour of meeting on the following day.
The Commons, on the contrary, always adjourn to a time specified, though
tlie saspension of a sitting often takes place. The adjournment of
one House is no adjournment of the other. The Crown may, during an
adjournment or prorogation, summon both Houses by proclamation. The
pleasure of the Crown may be signified that boih Houses should adjourn to
a specified day ; this intimation is contrary to modern usage, and has not
been exercised since 1814. Adjournment does not cAost the session ; proro.
nation does not terminate the Parliament ; the former is an act of either
House; the latter an act of the Crown, whereby the duration of a
seasiun may be extended or curtailed, according to the royal pleasuret
subject to Act of Parliament.
All unfinished proceedings (except an impeachment, and an appeal
to the House of Lords) are quashed by prorogation; but during an
adjonrnment they remain m statu quo. Prorogation is effected at
the dose of a session by royal oomraissitin, aud then by proclama-
tion until it is intended that Parliament should assemble for the dis-
patch of business. Prorogation has been resorted to in order to admit
lh« reintroduction, otherwise not possible until the next session^ of a
bill which has b«en rejected by the Lords ; thus in 1831 there whs a
prorogation from Oct. 2U to Dec. ^, to allow of the reintroduciion of the
Kefonn Bill. The Crown by proclamation may, notwithstanding a proroga-
tion, summon Parliament on giving not less than six days' notice ; before
the year 1 870 the period was fixed at fourteen days. In case of the embodi-
ment of the Militia, Parliament must be summoned within ten days.
Dissolution is the civil death of Parliament, and may be eflected by
the pleasure of the Crown, or by lap.se of time. Parliament under
<be Septennial Act ceases to exist after seven years from the day
On nhich by the writ of summons it was appointed to meet. Until
'he Reform Act of 1867 was passed, the law was that, however re-
cently elected, a Parliament mu.st expire in six months at most i^rom the
il
1 38 PARLIAMENTARY
demise of (he Crown, Mbject tn disflolafion by the Sorerei};n in a
less period than six months from the denth of his predcoesKor.
Since that Act became law, however, the Parliament in being at any
future demise of the Crown will continue as long as it would have
otherwise continued, unless dissolved by the new Sovereign. If Parlia-
ment at the time of the Sovereign's death be separated by a^joarnmetit
ur prnrngwtion, it mast assemble immediately. If no Parliament bts then
in existence, the members of the last must again meet and may serve lu a
Parliament for six months, unless sooner prorogued ; and so much Innpor-
tance appears to be attached to an instant assemblage, that upon the
demise of the Crown even the intervention of Sunday has not been per-
mitted to delay the meeting of both Houses. ^See also Session.)
SITTINGS OP THE HOUSE.— Unless the House otherwise order,

■■ at preaeat, the oi^an or spokesman of the Commons, and delivers
speeches on their belialf. Amongst the duties of the Spealcer are the fol.
lowing: he reads to the Sovereign addresses from the Commons, and
delireri, in the Royal presence, whether at the Palace or in the House
of Lords, nich speeches as are usually made on behalf of the Commons. He
praposes and puta each queation for the decision of tiie House, and, if
uecessary, direcu the House to divide thereon, and appoints the tellers ;
be callson the Members who rise to speak j he puts questions in the name of
the House, when witnesses or prisoners are at the bar} reprimands persons
who incur the displeasure of the House ; issues warrants fior new writs ft>r the
election of a. If ember, and makes communications in writing, when so in-
•tnictedby the House.
He is the guardian of the rights and privileges of the House) and by hit
counsel ascertains that private bills are drawn In conformity with the Law of
Ptflianwnt. He expresses the thanks or approbation of the Commons to dis.
tinguished personages ; entertains the Members at dinner in due successiun
and at stated prriodsi and in the Chaplain's absence he reads prs} ers. He
siijnurBS the House at four o'clock, if forty members be not present (see
Httose of Common^)-
He maintains order in the House, either by the authority of his position, or
under the standing and other orders of the House. The Speaker names
Members who persist in disorder (see Naming a Member). In extreme cases
Uie Speaker may order Members or others Into custody until the pleasure Of
the Houaa be sigDified. The Speaker must not enter into debstr,
though be may speak in a Committee of the whole House. On divisions,
when the numbers iiappen to be equal, he gives the casting voice, ntherw ise
he only votes when out of the Chair, that is when the House is in Committee.
When Parliament is prorogued by the Sovereign, it is customary for the
Speaker to address to the I hrone from the bar of the House of Lords,
> ipeech recapitulating the proceedings of the session.
His Privileges, Appointment, and Rank.— He is chosen by the House of
Commons from amongst its own members, subject to the approval of the
Crown, and holds office till the dissolution of the Parliament in which
>w was elected. His salary is 5000/. a.year, with a fnrnUhed residence.
At the end of his official labours he ts rewarded by a peerage, and a
pension of 40001. He is a member of the ("rivy Council and entttlod to
rank after Barons.
Until the year 18A8, business conid not be transacted in his absence,
though to this rule there was an exception in the year 1606, a prisoner
**«ing released by order of the House during the illness of a Speaker. In
An;u9t, 1853, however, it was rexolved that during the unavoidable
140 PARLIAMENTARY
abKHce of (he Speaker, the Chairman of Committee of Ways and Means
should preside in bis stead ; and the Speaker may during the sitting of the
House, ask htm to take the Chair. (See also Closure of Debate, Conduct
of Members, Sittings of the House, Chairman of Committee of Wayeand
Means, New Parliament, &c.)
SPB AKBR OF THE HOUSE OF LOilDS.~The Lord Chancdlor, or Lord
Keeper of the great seal* is by prescription Speaker of the House of Lords.
He is usually, but not necessarily, a peer. There has always been a Deputy
Speaker* and formerly there were two or moret tiut from the year
1851 there was only one, though in 1881, four Deputy Sp«-akers were
appointed. The Chairman in Committees cenerallv fills this office (see
Chairman of Committee). In the alwence of the Lord Chancellor and
the Deputy Speakers* it is competent to the House to appomt any noble
Lord to take the woolsack. The Speaker is the organ or mouthpiece of the
House, and it is therefore his duty to represent tlielr Lordships in theii
collective capacity when holding intercourse n ith other public bodies or with
ndividoals. Unlike the Commons* Speaker, lie votes on divisions, but be
has not a casting vote ; for should the numbers prove equal, the not contents
are held to prevail. See also Lord High Chancellor and New Parliament.
SPEECH FROM THE THRONE.-See Session.
STANDING AND SESSIONAL ORDERS— A Standing Order is a
resolution agreed to by (h j Houjie for the guidance and <irder of their pro-
ceedings, whidi the House has resolved to a Standing Order, and is
operHtive until it is repealed. The Stnnding Orders regulate the sittings
of the committees of the House, procedure on bills* the presentation of
petitions* the creation of charges upon the public revenue, and other
matters connected with the procedare of the House.
Sessional orders agreed to at the commencement of each session are re-
newed l^om year to year. These orders relate to Members returned upon
doable returns* and declsre that peers must not interfere with elections to
Pitrliament, and that the Hou.<>e will proceed with severity against persom
guilry of electoral bribery. The Commi.<'sioners of the Police are also
ordered to keep the streets leading to the house free and open.
Many resolutions governing the procedure of the House made in past
Parliaments are continually observed, and have by custom received ilie
force and operative eflfectof a Standing Order.
STRANGERS— It is contrary to the Standing Orders of both Houses thst
any suangers should be present; and the publicmtion of debates U theoretically
a breach of privilege. But secret deliberation by Parliament has been so

long renounced) that the right of the public to be present through their
agents* the Reporters, is as clearly established as if no theoretical
privacj had ever existed. Occasions have arisen, however, though at Itmg
interrals, when the House has thought proper to exclude strangers, as
in 1870, when they were excluded during debates not thought desirable tu
render public. Up to the year 1875 a single member who toolc
notice of the presence of strangers could procure an order from the Chair
for their ezciusion; but by resolution agreed to during the session of 1875,
subsequently made a Standing Order, strangers are not to be excluded
except by a motion carried wiihout amendment or debate, reserving to
the Speaker or Chairman the power to order the withdrawal of strangers
from any part oi the House. As ladies are not technically ** StrNngers,"
their preaance in their gallery is unaffected by the order of the House.
See House of Commons.)
SOPPLY (COMMITTEE OF)^All proceedings which relate to the publie
income or expenditure must originate with the House of Commons, and are
commenced by the demand of the Sovereign, in the Royal Speech, for
« supply of money to maintain (he public service. The grant of Supply
by the Commons is founded on the estimates of the annual expenditure
presented by the Crown, and is made by resolutions which are sgreed to,
first in Committee of Supply, and then by the House, and subsequently
sanctioned by the Appropriation Act. (See p. 111.) After the House
has first gone into Committee of Supply on the Army, Navy, and Civil
Services, the Hoase resolves itself into Committee forthwith, in order
that under the constitutional usage that grievances be heaid before (he
grant of Supply general subjects are discussed on the question, " that
the Speaker do leave the Chair." The payment of the grsnt of Supply
is made by the Treasury when the issue is sanctioned by a royal order
under the sign manual, and by the Consolidated Paud and the Appro-
priation Acts which are passed during the progress and at the close of the
session. See also Ways and Means.
